A picturesque lake located just
10 miles from downtown Charlotte, this wonderful lake
is known as one of Northwest Charlotte's recreational
playgrounds. In addition, this 3000-acre lake provides
drinking water to the residents of Mecklenburg and
Gaston Counties, as well as being an important wildlife
area. Recreational activities on the lake include boating
and fishing, water skiing, sailing, jet skiing and
kayaking.
Many professionals opt to live in the

proximity to Charlotte Douglas International Airport
and Charlotte’s uptown. You can have it all
in this thriving community. Enjoy nature at its
fullest on beautiful Mountain Island Lake while enjoying
